Tonight, at Wembley Stadium, the heavyweight prospect Anthony Joshua continues his professional career.

In his sixth professional fight, Joshua will be facing Matt Legg, a fighter who has won seven and lost two of his last nine fights.

Although Legg accepts he is the under-dog and expected to become Joshua?s 6th victim, he has ambitions of causing an upset, remarking ahead of the fight,

?I know I am the under-dog but I have never stopped training in the last three months prior to my fight in Milton Keynes.?

?When we got the call to confirm the Joshua fight we had already been working on our tactics so it was just a matter of reinforcing them with a renewed vigour.?

?I am really up for this fight and will bring something different to the table that Joshua has not seen or had to deal with.?

?We have watched all his pro bouts as well as some of his Olympic ones and there are definitely areas which we can take advantage of.?

?There is no pressure on me at all. I feel really calm and just enjoying every single moment of it.?

?No-one has really tested him yet but I intend to give him something to think about and hopefully pull off a shock upset.?


Can Legg upset the apple-cart?

Here at Vital Boxing we don?t think so but he could give Joshua a sterner test than he?s had previously.
